Thanks for the series, it looks like the right thing to do.
Can you please change the patch ordering though? At the moment there will be a bisection break at patch #1, because the legacy drivers will suddenly start gaining modifier support, before it is removed in patch #2.
I think a better order would be: 1: add fb_modifiers_not_supported flag to core and drivers 2: add default modifiers (and set allow_fb_modifiers) if fb_modifiers_not_supported flag is not set 3: remove allow_fb_modifiers flag
Cheers, Daniel
